MY SAY: IMAGINE THE CHUTZPAH OF DONALD TRUMP
The Diplos, the pundits, the headlines, the “calumnists”are all so upset. Imagine the gall of Donald Trump to appoint an ambassador to Israel who actually likes the country!
The title of the posting is actually amusing: Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary
How about that? “extraordinary ” and “plenipotentiary”…..
A note to those who “console” themselves by claiming that David Friedman’s policies will be completely subject to the will of Donald Trump:
definition of plenipotentiary –
-
a person, especially a diplomat, invested with the full power of independent action on behalf of their government, typically in a foreign country.2.having full power to take independent action.They would obviously prefer plenipotentates like Martin Indyk who served as U.S. ambassador to Israel from 1995 to 1997 and again from 2000 to 2001,who were strident critics of Israel and would use harsh threats to force Israeli concessions to every and all Palarab demands. In his own words : he boasted to the Washington Post (2-24-97) that he saw his job in Israel as similar to “a circus master” who “cracks the whip” in order to “get [the animals] to move around in an orderly fashion.”That animus is truly extraordinary!Hooray for Donald Trump!
